David Skinner is a SVP Strategic Growth at Zeta Global. They possess expertise in analytics, strategy, digital marketing, online advertising, marketing and 19 more skills. Colleagues describe them as "David is one of the few people you meet with the ability to successfully lead large-scale, complex corporate initiatives and teams. I had the pleasure of working with Dave in two capacities at [x+1]: For the first year, he led our Client Solutions team, responsible for onboarding, retaining and growing relationships with our most complex and demanding Fortune 100 enterprise clients. Dave started this team from scratch and grew it into an organization with over 60 employees supporting the various cross-functional support process. Building on that success, Dave was asked by our CEO to build a partnership ecosystem enabling the company to deliver higher value-added solutions to our clients with the assistance of 3rd party solution vendors. Dave had to quickly assess the myriad partnership initiatives underway across multiple functional areas and rationalize these activities under a comprehensive, integrated business strategy. Over the years I have worked for and with Dave, I have been particularly impressed with his ability to distill the most complex business problems down to the precious few important ingredients for success; it is a trait that I have tried to emulate. He also has an innate ability to apply a “systems thinking” approach to every business challenge – understanding how each functional area within the enterprise contributes to the solution. Perhaps it is not unreasonable to expect that anyone with Dave’s unique combination of deep functional expertise (i.e., Sales, Service, Operations, Product, and Finance) and management consulting experience would approach problems in this way, but it seems to come more naturally for him as if it were embedded in his DNA. Dave is also a really great guy – when he says he is going to do something, he does it. He is a straight shooter who works in good faith with internal and external parties to build positive working relationships with tangible outcomes. Equally important, he knows when to de-prioritize initiatives when the outcomes are not clear. I also admire his ability to calm and composed even under the most stressful situations. And as a part-time stand-up comic, I greatly appreciate his dry wit – some might even call it “Sahara dry”. Dave is an asset to any management team – from small companies looking to instill structure and discipline to larger companies looking to drive results across functional silos – and I hope someday to work with him again." and "Dave is a top notch biz and corp dev executive and is expert in marketing technology, products and business practices. Dave quickly identifies mutually beneficial opportunities for companies to work together and partners closely with product, implementation, marketing and sales teams on successful execution and GTMs. He’s skilled at navigating both start-ups with nascent products and large behemoth organizations. Dave worked closely on the integration of Rocket Fuel and [x+1]. He brought the discipline of an enterprise centric company to Rocket Fuel and propelled Rocket Fuel's biz dev team to the next level."
